CONTEMPORARY ISSUES SYSTEM RELATED Insurance sectors are not

covering ayush therapies .No policies for

reimbursement of patients bills in state and central government.

No proper orientation ,trainings, financial supports to establish ayurvedic centers.

No specific jobs and departments in Army,railway etc.

CONTEMPORARY ISSUES DRUGS RELATEDNo specific DRUG CONTROL resulting great difference in quality of drugs ,varies company to company.

Extinction of plant species many plant species are in danger.

Unstanderized manufacturing system, resulting quality difference in same medicines( batch to batch ).

Companies are reducing their drug ranges as many of classical drugs are not available in general market.

QUALITY OF EDUCATION & JOB OPPORTUNITIESQuality of education is very poor ,students are

not clinic ready,students should get proper clinical exposure.

Study should be advanced and job oriented.No job opportunity for new graduates , no one

is ready to fund their startups .Salary of a B.A.M.S graduate is not more than

an unskilled laborer ,some are even struggling for their basic needs.

You can see daily adds regarding jobs Ayurveda doctor 10,000 to 18000 p.m resulting….

Who is responsible for this…?

Gene mapping – natural hybridization is the challenge .

Six sigma standards - every batch of medicine should be equally effective.

Bio resource development – extinction of plant species is the challenge.

Pre clinical ,clinical studies of sastrokta & patent medicines – EVIDENCE BASED MEDICINE IS THE CHALLENGE.

Using I.C.P.M.S – HEAVY METAL IS THE CHALLENGE.

Developments

CHECK FOR MICROBES & GAMMA ERADICATION – MICROBIAL GROWTH IS THE CHALLENGE.

STABILITY TESTING USING MODERN TECDHNIQUES LIKE THERMOLAB ETC. – STABILITY OF PACKED DRUGS UNDER VARIOUS ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITION IS THE CHALLENGE.

QUALITY OF PACKAGING MATERIAL .NEW PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT – CHANGE IN

CONSUMPTION PATTERN IS THE CHALLANGE (MORE PALATABLE DRUG FORMULATIONS)
